Lyrics
YOU BE MY OPIUM
YOU BE MY OPIUM, I?LL BE YOUR POPPY SEED
YOU BE MY ALCOHOL, I?LL BE THE COKE YOU NEED
WAKE UP, YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE TO DRINK ALONE
MY HANDS, THEY?RE SHAKING, SHAKING SO BAD
I?M TIRED, I?M WORN OUT
THINK WE?RE DYING ON THE VINE
AND YOU?RE THE ONE ADDICTION WON?T LEAVE BEHIND
YOU BE MY OPIUM, I?LL BE YOUR POPPY SEED
YOU BE MY ALCOHOL, I?LL BE THE COKE YOU NEED
WAKE UP, YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE TO WALK ALONE
AND YOUR, YOUR BEAUTIFUL BODY?S LOOKING SO FRAIL
IT?S LATE, LIFE?S WASTING, AND WE?RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME
AND YOU?RE, YOU?RE ONE ADDICTION WON?T LEAVE BEHIND
YOU BE MY OPIUM, I?LL BE YOUR POPPY SEED
YOU BE MY ALCOHOL, I?LL BE THE COKE YOU NEED
IT?S NOT TOO LATE; DOESN?T HAVE TO BE OUR FATE
WE?RE AT HEAVEN?S GATE, HAND-IN-HAND WE CAN TURN AROUND
SO WAKE UP
NO MONEY, TIME TO TURN THINGS UPSIDE DOWN
AND YOUR BEATIFUL FACE IS LOOKING SO PALE
WAKE UP, MY HONEY WE CAN TURN THIS ALL AROUND
?CAUSE YOU?RE ONE ADDICTION WON?T LEAVE BEHIND
